Our verdict

Get cashback as you spend and save with a low interest rate on purchases with the BCU Rewards credit card.

The BCU Rewards credit card features a relatively competitive cashback offer with the bonus of a low interest rate. The cap on the maximum cashback you can get is higher than some others on the market. It does a higher annual fee than some of the other cashback credit cards on the market though, so it’s worth comparing the costs with the rewards before you want to apply. Although the low purchase interest rate could help you save, you should aim to pay your balance in full each month and take advantage of the interest-free days on purchases.

Pros

  • Get 0.66% cashback per $1 spent on eligible transactions.
  • Enjoy a low standard variable interest rate of 13.05% p.a. on purchases.
  • Receive up to 52 days interest-free on purchases.
  • This card comes with 24-hour fraud monitoring.

Cons

  • Charges a 3.65% foreign transaction fee

Hi Donna,


Depending on your situation, you may be eligible for Good Shepherd’s No Interest Loans(NILs).


You can also compare internet loans and learn more about them on Finder. And if you’re experiencing financial stress, you can talk to a financial counsellor for free by calling the National Debt Helpline on 1800 007 007. I hope that helps.
